Abstract

In this paper, a discrete-time recurrent neural network with one neuron and global convergence is proposed for k -winners-take-all (k WTA) operation. Comparing with the existing k WTA networks, the proposed network has simpler structure with only one neuron. The global convergence of the network can be guaranteed for k WTA operation. Simulation results are provided to show that the outputs vector of the network is globally convergent to the solution of the k WTA operation.
